Brian Enos' "Whip"
Hubbard Street 2 (HS2), under the leadership of Artistic Director Julie Nakagawa Böttcher, is a company of six dancers between the ages of 17 and 25 who perform a repertoire of works by some of the nation’s most promising choreographers. HS2 reaches as many as 35,000 people annually through performances in schools, community centers and theaters. Since its inception in 1997, the company has become a respected training ground for young, professional dancers and choreographers; a major component of HSDC’s Education & Community Programs; a resource for new dancers for HSDC’s main company and a performing company in its own right. As a part of its mission to identify and nurture young choreographers, HS2 initiated a National Choreographic Competition in the summer of 1999. Each summer, the competition provides winners with one-week residencies to create an original work on the company. In addition to Chicago area appearances, HS2’s touring schedule has taken the company domestically from coast to coast and internationally to Germany, Switzerland and Luxembourg.
